Killie need to catch up to the pack - McInnes

Derek McInnes has urged Kilmarnock to kickstart their Premiership campaign after exiting Europe.

The Rugby Park men are bottom of the table after opening with three straight defeats before Saturday's visit of Hibs.

"I'm looking forward to the game when it comes round," said McInnes after Thursday night's Conference League play-off loss to Copenhagen.

"We'll recover and get ourselves ready again. I will freshen the team up.

"It's never easy when you play Hibs so it's up to us to try to have a team together to go and get a positive result.

"I think it's important we go into the international break on something positive.

"We're not too far away from five, six, seven teams in the league. I'm confident we'll make it up. But the sooner we do that, the better."
